Designing Physical Education Courses Based on Musical Environment: Using Spinning as an Example.

The design of physical education (PE) lessons is an ongoing research project that encompasses elements such as teaching ideas, teaching objectives and teaching methods. Music is regarded as the pinnacle form of beauty and combining it with PE not only improves the effectiveness of PE lessons, but also increases the artistry of PE lessons. The purpose of this study is to examine the combination of music and cycling lessons in order to determine the effectiveness of cycling lessons in a musical environment. For study one, 95 undergraduate students were randomly selected to participate in the experiment in two conditions ( M age = 20.00 years, SD = 1.00 years): (1) with music, (2) without music. For study two, 10 students were randomly selected to cycle in three study conditions: (1) synchronous music, (2) asynchronous fast music and (3) asynchronous slow music. Heart rate (HR), rating of perceived exertion (RPE), Exercise-Induced Feeling Inventory (EFI) and sport performance were measured. There were significant differences in HR, RPE, EFI and exercise performance between the two conditions with and without music, and the group with music performed higher than the group without music. In study two, ratings of perceived exertion were significantly lower for the synchronous music condition at 25, 30 min of the steady state portion of the cycling trials. No significant difference between conditions were found in HR, EFI and sport performance. An innovative fundamental model for teaching physical education courses in a musical environment was developed, including five sections: (1) selection of teaching mode, (2) setting of teaching objectives, (3) teaching process and content arrangement, (4) teaching evaluation and (5) precautions. With the addition of a musical environment, sport performance can be enhanced by triggering students' emotions and cognition.
